Pillow Time Story
Ten classic character rhymes in a cozy harvest collection.
Peter found a pumpkin, golden, big, and round. He made a cozy pumpkin home upon the garden ground. He swept it clean and lit a lamp to make the windows glow, Then shared it with his family when evening breezes blow.
Polly, put the kettle on; we'll all have tea. Set the cups and saucers out for you and me. When the little kettle sings, pour it carefully, Then sit around the table as cozy as can be.
Pease porridge hot, pease porridge cold, Pease porridge in the pot, warm and golden. Stir it once and stir it twice, Share a little bowl—it tastes so nice.
Goosey, goosey gander, where do you wander? Upstairs, downstairs, over and under. Through the hall and round the chair, Goosey waddles everywhere.
Simple Simon met a baker going to the fair. Said Simple Simon to the baker, What have you there? The baker showed him pies all golden in a row, And Simon smiled politely before he had to go.
Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn. The sheep are in the meadow, the cows are in the corn. But Boy Blue rests beneath the hay, Dreaming through the sunny day.
Little Tommy Tucker sings for his supper, A merry little tune as the evening grows dim. The family taps the table and softly sings along, Then shares a cozy supper at the ending of the song.
Little Arabella Miller found a caterpillar. First it climbed upon a leaf, then it climbed a little higher. Arabella watched it travel safely through the green, The tiniest garden visitor that she had ever seen.
Wee Willie Winkie walks through the town, Upstairs and downstairs in his nightgown. He taps at the window and whispers with delight, Children are cozy; now wish them goodnight.
Doctor Foster went out in the rain, With boots and a coat down the lane. He found a puddle, broad and deep, Then splashed around it with one careful leap.
